I need to find out if it's possible to use xt1's EVF without my reading glasses. I was able to use the Cannon 1DX without my glasses.

Yes. I have horrible eyesight, but I hate shooting with glasses on. The Electronic Viewfinder (EVF) on this camera is awesome, and there is a diopter (a little "focus" button) specifically for dialing in your specific vision issues. If you can buy reading glasses off the shelf, then your vision falls into the range the diopter can correct for.

Yes! And I have 20/20 vision. (Nearly 50 years old and don't need glasses to to read either) I said all that to say this; Somehow these glasses enhance 3D experience when watching Blu ray 3D. Standard passive 3D glasses like LG for instance do not compare to these Oakleys. and I'm sure there are better ones out there... but I am completely satisfied with these Oakleys. Good luck!

I would guess that you wouldn't need glasses bc the print and everything is much bigger than without the magnifier. Your glasses may help everything seem visually crisper though.

You can only use x mount lenses. There are adapters sold to add other lenses. (Google it)

Elizabeth, there's no optical viewfinder either in E-PL1 or 2. Both of them are equipped with LCD screen, viewfinder (VF2) is an optional accesory for both models.

I tried it with my glasses and I didn't like it........they have a diopter adjustment on them so u should be able to use them without glasses...good luck

There are no electrical contacts, at least on my adapter, to enable VR to work. Of greater concern is that DX lenses have no aperature ring and when mounted will be set to minimum aperature of f/22 or f/32. Older lenses with an aperature ring can be adjusted.

It does not have 3D capabilities (no glasses, no possibility of synching with glasses). With that said, I suppose it may be possible to find a third party 3d device that would create an alternate picture for both eyes and synch with associated glasses. The screen is definitely fast enough to handle that, but the capability is not inherently built in.

I also need reading glasses, but find I don't need to use them with this viewfinder, which is excellent btw.

I was curious since I have never tried that before. I just tried it and with the additional brackets that come with it I was able to position the viewfinder directly in front of my eye perfectly. That was tested with a Canon T3i. Your results may vary depending on camera, etc but it worked perfect for me.

I've got a t4i and haven't had any problems not seeing the entire screen surface... The magnification is great for focusing... It's very easily remove able and adjustable according to your needs... I use mine without the eye cup just because I may not always be able to view with the same eye when roaming and doing diff shots and it word well

I wear reading glasses and I've used them successfully. Keep in mind that your glasses could fog though.

Yes you can wear glasses and still use the device. You can use a HDMI cable only.

Play around with the EV. I usually keep mine at +2.0 for a lot of my low light shots. Keep in mind though that sometimes even that won't help. The auto mode sometimes help too.

You will need an adapter Vivitar has one that works well and very econocal. Enjoy it. Good luck.

I believe they will work. I was just at an XD showing and had my 2D glasses in case the 3D was crappy for Guardians of the Galaxy. I never pulled them out because the 3D was really effective in that one. Next time I'll remember to try it out to know for sure and post here unless someone beats me to it.

If I understand your Query correctly you need to wear reading glasses. Correct? The EOS Canon cameras have a pretty extensive range of adjustability built in. If you need something additional (rather unlikely) then match the diopeter number to the number you wear with your reading glasses. Such as +1.5 or +2.5...I purchased this adjustment lenses but actually found out the Canon had the correct adjustment on the camera for me around +1.75. So I don't use this piece.
